TRA members favor name change to ASCENT

WASHINGTON-A majority of the Telecommunications Resellers Association members have voted in support of changing the group’s name to the Association of Communications Enterprises, virtually guaranteeing the name change.

“The response from the membership has been overwhelmingly supportive,” said Sherm Henderson, chairman of the board for TRA. “We are deeply appreciative of the abiding support we have received from our membership. It will set us on the course to even greater achievements in the years ahead.”

TRA president Ernest Kelly III added that the association will continue to advocate opening all communications markets to full competition and that the name change was a timely and critical step allowing the association to build on its past success as it moves forward.

The formal name change is expected to take place during TRA’s Spring Conference and Exhibition, May 8-10 in Philadelphia.
